I had my 'biopsy' on tuesday, however when they went in to take a piece of what they thought was an enlarged lymph node, the surgeon discovered it was an abnormally enlarged salivary gland instead! I wish they could have told me that without surgery, but I guess that is what was needed. He felt it and examined it, but didn't think it looked cancerous, so he just sewed me back up. So, not lymphoma! I still can't explain my other symptoms, but am more than relieved this has been ruled out at last and feel like I can rest in that knowledge. Thanks guys! All the best to each of you.

Warmly,
Charlie

    I am happy to hear that Charlie, although I would have been happier without the surgery too but I'll take any good news I can get my hands on!

    Congrats to you,
    Beth
